At this mont, Jeff, or rather, Caleb's grandfather, had the desire to ask an important question that was on his mind to his son. He also knew Alfred personally, because he was the one who recomnded Alfred to his son. "So, son, did you take care of the family mbers that Alfred left?" The old man beca serious at this mont. Although he knew that his son would not ss up about such matters, he still needed to make sure.
"Yes, Dad, I've taken care of the only grandson that Alfred left. I gave him a pension that would last him for a lifeti. And I let three of the most capable assassins in the underground to monitor him and make sure that he was safe and sound every week. It's the last thing that I could do for Alfred. And that his grandson just has to ask for help. Or if he has trouble, our family would be willing to support him."
"And, you know, Klein and Delvin have a good relationship with Steve. So, at least we consider Alfred's grandson a family. He's not a stranger to us. Why would I neglect this?" There's a slight anger in his voice. Find exclusive stories on empire
Jeff could not help but let out a soft chuckle as he saw his son's reaction.
"Well, don't be so hot. I'm just asking because I'm concerned about Alfred. He's the only little boy that made feel different in the past, you know. He has such a sharp mind and wisdom that made acknowledge him. Now that he's dead, I feel that I need to do sothing. But since you've already got it covered, then I'm not worried anymore." Hearing his father's words made him calm down. "Well, I'm also sorry for the thing just now. I'm just not in the right state today." He said respectfully to his father.
At this mont, he rembered that the man in front of him, or rather his father, was soone that he couldn't disrespect. His father was a great figure that is a giant in the west. A guild master that is enough to influence the decisions of various leaders in big countries. He knew that his father could kill him with just one snap. And he did not doubt that his father would do that if necessary. Although it might not look like it, his father was quite a cold-blooded person. But he's chill most of the ti unless you touch his reverse scale. Fortunately, his father doesn't seem offended or did not take his reaction to heart.
'Is it because he's in a good mood because of Adam's talent? That must be it!'
He knew more than anyone how his father valued talent. So it's not surprising that he's in a good mood this ti. In a word, his son might have saved him from getting punishnt from his father.
Well, in the first place, his father is not a man who likes to punish people, not to ntion, his family mbers.
His father is not a violent person. He's just cold-blooded when a goal is needed to be done. He would use any ans necessary to reach a goal. The various ans that he had employed in the past were quite questionable. That's why he was a bit scared of his father. So he was fortunate that his father seed to take a liking to his son, Adam.
"So, son, now that it seems you've got it all settled, the matters concerning Alfred is done. Can I now talk about why I'm here? Why did I return to this country? You know..." Jeff stood up straight and the figure of soone in power ca out of his figure like an invisible aura.
Caleb, Delvin, Klein, and Voli felt the change in the air around the old man. They could feel the overbearing presence around him. They could not help but gulp at the sudden change. They felt as if they were in front of a president of a country. 'Damn, did not expect this old man to have this kind of temperant. He must have cultivated it after sitting in the position of power for such a long ti.'
Caleb thought secretly in his heart and snickered.
After interacting with or encountering a lot of people from various worlds that he went to, he was familiar with this type of temperant. His grandfather's deanor wasn't much different from Michael's. That fucking sacrificed him to advance to a higher realm.
"Father, you don't need to say that. Yes, I want to know why you're here. Is there sothing that happened in your guild or do you have business in the Philippines?"
Adam's father asks with a business expression.
At this mont, Jeff gestured at Delvin and Klein, "Well, kids, can you give us ti? This is not sothing that you can participate in. This discussion will concern secrets."
Hearing this, Klein and Delvin looked at each other and nodded obediently. They stood up and were just about to leave when they stopped. Then they looked at their grandfather and pointed at Caleb. "But grandfather, how about Adam?" Klein asked.
"He's even younger than , but why can he stay? Klein scratched his head in embarrassnt. And then he realized sothing. "Is it because he's a genius? But don't forget, I'm the first genius in the family." Klein teased jokingly.
Jeff shook his head. "Yep, you might be a genius and the first one to break through. But there are things that you guys don't know. This Adam here, my grandson, is hiding sothing from all of you. But I can understand why he would do so because it's just so shocking. So Klein, before you talk big like that, make sure you're not ignorant of your younger brother's affairs... Your talent is just laughable compared to your younger brother Adam."
"Fuck!? Really!?" Klein cussed with stared at Adam, wide-eyed.
Delvin raised his eyebrow and looked at Adam. Hey, mate, you're actually hiding sothing from us? Are you secretly an extraordinary realm or sothing?"
At this mont, the father and his mother glared at him, which made Caleb chuckle nervously.
Damn! Damn it! God damn it! How did this freaking old man know my true realm? Just as I expected, this damn old man must be in a realm that is higher than transcendent. At this mont.'
Caleb ca to the conclusion and he was finally sure about his guess.
Jeff gave Caleb a deep look and said: "I won't specifically tell you guys what his secret is. It needs to co out of his mouth. If he doesn't want to say it. Then, you shall not force him and respect his decision..."
"Everyone is privileged to have their secrets after all..." The old man grinned
'Fuck old man!'
Caleb cussed.
